I had the unit and the wiring plug to stick one into mine, then my dad took it when i sold the car.

I could have been the 1st

hats off to you though, how did you do the mph sensor from the front wheel?

the elise takes it speed readings from abs, which gives more pulses/second than my gearbox sender. although on migweb theres some guys who claim to have just used an astra gte digidash transducer and it worked ok

Its lotus clocks in a corsa...I dont see the appeal. Yes it looks decent but it says lotus...

Thats like me buying a ferrari badge and sticking it to my car...

It would look a lot better without the word Lotus on...

IMHO

Its for the stack dash.
Nothing to do with lotus.
I assume the lotus version is cheaper than the one from stack or maybe wiring?

Yes im not debating the quality of dash etc...

Merely the fact it says Lotus in a Corsa...

Just looks a bit naff if you ask me
